Author's Note: If you
have never seen Pushing Daisies then I will try to tell you about it.
Pushing Daisies is about a man who when he was young found out that
he had the power to bring dead things back to life with the touch of
his finger. He has a best friend named Charlotte "Chuck" Charles
who lives across the street. He didn't know how his magic finger
worked and so he had no idea that he could only bring back a person,
or animal for only a minute and if it is longer than a minute that
something of equal value would die. If he were to touch the person,
or thing that died then that person would die forever. When he was
young his mother died in front of him and he brought her back to life
and it was longer than a minute. Chuck's father is the one who dies
and then later that night when his mother tucked him into bed she
kissed his forehead and was dead in an instant. When he tried to
revive her she didn't come back to life. He was put into a boarding
school by his father and never saw him again until one day during
Halloween, which he found out that his father had another family. He
grew up to be the pie maker. He had found his childhood sweetheart,
but she was dead and so he revived her. The funeral director was the
one who died in her place. Emerson Cod and Chuck are the only one's
who know about his magic finger. He also brought his dog Digby back
to life and he could never pet him again.

Magic

Young Ned was 12 years,
four hours, 10 minutes and 7 seconds old. He had just arrived at the
Rhode Island Military Academy. He had been transferred from what he
called the Home, but he didn't know how long he would be here. His
dog Digby was besides him. He was happy to know that Digby was
allowed to go with him.

Young Tony was 12 years
2 hours, 20 minutes and 4 seconds old. He glanced around. His father
had disowned him and had sent him to Rhode Island Military Academy.
He wondered if he would make friends here. He spotted a boy around
his age and there was a dog beside him.

----

Tony and Ned ran to the
park and started to throw the ball around. Tony loved to play sports
and wanted to become a professional football player. He watched Ned
his friend run to catch the ball he then he turned to watch Digby
bark and wag his tail as he watched the two boys play ball. He liked
Digby and Ned had told him all about his magic finger and Tony had
told him about his father. He felt bad for Ned because he couldn't
pet his beloved pet. Tony liked Digby and would pet him when Ned
couldn't.

"Hey, Tony."

"Ya, Ned."

"Wanted you to watch
for the ball. Didn't want me to hit you in the head."

"I'm watching."
Replied Tony with a smile.

They were not the only
kids that were here over the Christmas vacation. There were a few
other kids, but Tony and Ned really didn't feel like talking to
them. Tony knew that his father wouldn't want him back at the house
after all he was disowned. Ned's father had left him at the Home
for boys and had never came back to see him again. Ned had gone out
one day during Halloween and had seen that his father had gotten
himself another family.

Tony ran towards the
ball and quickly caught it. He stopped and then threw the ball back
towards his friend who immediately began to run towards the ball and
he too caught it. When they were done tossing the football they went
towards their separate rooms to clean up and change their clothes.

One year later Tony
watched as his friend's things were put into the car. He was being
taken back to the Home for Boys.

"Goodbye Tony."

"Goodbye Ned."

The two young friends
hugged each other.

"I hope that we will
see each other again." Replied Ned.

"I hope so too."
Replied Tony

Ned sat in the backseat
and looked out the back window as he was taken away from his friend.

-----

Years Later.

"Grab your gear and
then pack your clothes. We have a dead Marine in Coeur de Coeur."

Tony stood there for a
minute. He remembered a young boy named Ned who was from Coeur de
Coeur who had a magic finger. He often wondered how Ned was and what
he was doing. Tony grabbed his backpack and then stepped into the
elevator when it opened.

When they arrived at
their destination Tony started taking photos and started sketching.
McGee was bagging and tagging. Ziva was questioning the person who
had found the body.

-----

Ned was busy making a
pie and looked up when Emerson Cod walked in nodding towards one of
the tables. Ned stopped making the pie and walked over to the table
and sat down.

"I need your
expertise." Emerson said. "Where's dead girl?" He said as he
looked around. Only finding Olive who was busy cleaning the bar and
who was far away to not hear what they were saying.

"Chuck is out walking
Digby." Ned said as he quickly turned to Emerson.

"Who died?" Ned
asked.

"A Marine."

Ned agreed to help
Emerson find out who killed the Marine and so they went to the morgue
and found out who did it, but before they could get revenge for the
person the NCI S agents came into the Pie Hole.

Ned was in the kitchen
when Tony, Ziva, Gibbs and McGee came into the Pie Hole and didn't
look up when they did. They were shown a seat by Olive Snook and sat
down to look over the pie selection. Chuck walked into the doors as
the NCIS Agents were trying to find out what they wanted. Digby ran
over to the Agents and started to bark and then put a paw on Tony's
lap.

"Digby, leave those
people alone."

"The dog's name is
Digby?" Asked Tony.

"Yes."

"Digby, you remember
me?" Tony said as he started petting the dog. Digby closed his eyes
as Tony petted his head.

Ned told him about what
he and Emerson had heard from the dead Marine.

The facts were these.
The Marine in question Ricky Thompson had gotten into Coeur de Coeur
for a little vacation. He had known someone from there and had wanted
to check out the little town for himself. He had gone to one of the
restaurants around town and had gotten in a fight with someone. The
man who he fought with was named Josh Alabastar and had hit Ricky
with a baseball bat and after he had killed him ran away.

All that was needed for
the NCIS Agents to do was to get some information that it was indeed
Josh who had killed the Marine. Without Tony telling them how he had
known it was Ned and his magic finger that had solved the case.

After they found the
evidence that they needed they quickly wrapped up the case. This time
it was Tony saying goodbye to his friend and who had looked out the
back window as they drove away.
